Question

Most monocots exhibit only _ growth at _ .
a) primary; apical meristems
b) primary; lateral meristems
c) secondary; lateral meristems

Answer 1

primary growth is the elongation of the plant and it only occurs at the apical meristem (the growing tip)
So you can already cancel B
Lateral meristems cause the plant to grow larger in diameter, that's secondary grow.

Monocots are plants like wheat and most of them only grow in length, not in diameter.
So the correct answer would be A
